It takes what?

by senior contributor Brendan Kownacki

We were on site for the DC red carpet premiere of HBO's new political
comedy VEEP to chat with cast and crew about Washington, politics and
the show.

The new series stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus as former
Senator Selina Meyer who has accepted the call to
serve as Vice President of the United States. The job is nothing like
she imagined and everything she was warned about.

'Veep'
follows Meyer and her staff as they attempt to make their mark and
leave a lasting legacy, without getting tripped up in the day-to-day
political games that define Washington. Created by Armando Iannucci (The Thick of It, In the Loop), the comedy is scripted but shot in an improvisational style.
